Saint Charlie Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 Tough run doesn't especially get easier until probably the end of January. Run until then is: Burnley away Everton home Palace away Chelsea home Arsenal home Man Utd away Newcastle away Where do you think we will be placed end of Jan? I think 7th, with top 4 gone, 5th and 6th still do-able if we can replicate early season form. Where do you think we will be?
LGTL Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 3 1 3 0 1 0 1 So 8 points from the next 7 is my prediction. No idea where that will put us.
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 It depends on other teams fixtures, and I don't know what they are. I can say I reckon there will be about 3 points between 4th and 10th by that time, so somewhere in there.
Lighthouse Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 N/A We will write to the FA and ask if we can 'graciously drop out of the league'.
Dalek2003 Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 Around 10th and starting to look at winnable games to reach the 40 point safety mark.
saint77 Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 Around 10th and starting to look at winnable games to reach the 40 point safety mark. Give it. A rest child
Whitey Grandad Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 Around 10th and starting to look at winnable games to reach the 40 point safety mark. In an ideal world, at what stage of the season would you like to see us reach 40 points?
Lighthouse Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 In an ideal world, at what stage of the season would you like to see us reach 40 points? Oh God, seriously just don't even talk to him. You will get nothing but garbage.
Whitey Grandad Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 Oh God, seriously just don't even talk to him. You will get nothing but garbage. I just wanted to see if he'd thought this through
CB Fry Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 Around 10th and starting to look at winnable games to reach the 40 point safety mark. Another rib - tickler from the comedy king of the Internet.
Dalek2003 Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 In an ideal world, at what stage of the season would you like to see us reach 40 points? As soon as possible. Job done ! Then we can relax and enjoy the season, even if we only pick up a few points.
Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 9 December, 2014 Posted 9 December, 2014 Said we wouldn't be top 6 by Xmas and I stand by that. There's some great odds to be had on us not finishing in the top 10.
naiser Posted 10 December, 2014 Posted 10 December, 2014 In an ideal world we should pick up more than 40 points by the 14th game.
Stud mark of doom Posted 10 December, 2014 Posted 10 December, 2014 Quick reality check - we are still odds on to finish in the top six with the bookies and if you want to throw money away you can get 750-1 on us bening relegated.
Roger Posted 10 December, 2014 Posted 10 December, 2014 We will beat burnley and Everton if we get Toby and Morgan back IMO. Draw at palace lose to Chelsea. However, think we can beat arsenal. Draw at toon and lose at utd. So fourth tbh and in cup semi. Ward prowse and Gallagher will be fit and we will have more depth in squad.
Big Ron fan Posted 10 December, 2014 Posted 10 December, 2014 6th or 7th, but I still think we'll finish the season in 3rd
NickG Posted 10 December, 2014 Posted 10 December, 2014 Said we wouldn't be top 6 by Xmas and I stand by that. There's some great odds to be had on us not finishing in the top 10. Think you will be wrong. Playing Burnley and Everton - 3 points from those guarantees top 5 at Christmas. Both Arsenal and Newcastle need to gain 4 points on us over those two games to overtake us. They can't both get 6 as playing each other. Arsenal - playing Newcastle and Liverpool Newcastle - playing Arsenal and Spurs Swansea need 5 more points than over 2 games and are playing Spurs and Hull. Liverpool and Spurs can only be ahead of us by Christmas if they win both of their and we lose both of ours. Liverpool playing Man U and Arsenal Spurs playing Swansea and Burnley. Which 2 do you see overtaking us? I think we will be top 6, probably top 5 at Christmas. If we lose 5 in a row, with one point from 6 games then we are likely to drop!
NickG Posted 10 December, 2014 Posted 10 December, 2014 Sorry for typo with points to guarantee top 5

Surely Swansea could overtake us by getting 4 points more and scoring a lot of goals, you know like whopping Hull 8-0 with us conceding a fair few. It's not likely of course but it is possible.

petts Posted 10 December, 2014 Posted 10 December, 2014 9 points from the next 3 games, nothing to fear from those.
NickG Posted 20 December, 2014 Posted 20 December, 2014 Said we wouldn't be top 6 by Xmas and I stand by that. There's some great odds to be had on us not finishing in the top 10. Top 6 secured for Christmas, unless Arsenal humiliate Liverpool then top 5 for Christmas.
trousers Posted 20 December, 2014 Posted 20 December, 2014 Top 6 secured for Christmas, unless Arsenal humiliate Liverpool then top 5 for Christmas. Ah, Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd....another poster with an 'interesting' posting pattern.....make of that what you will....
Saint_clark Posted 20 December, 2014 Posted 20 December, 2014 If we could be back in the top 4 for january first that will be a real statement.
NickG Posted 1 January, 2015 Posted 1 January, 2015 Looking at their fixtures, spurs will be disappointed if they don't overtake us by end of the month. Would hope to stay above arsenal and west ham. Can't see any of the others overtaking us by the Ned of the month. Top 5 by end of January, and having played Man U, Newcastle and Arsenal twice, with two possible rivals (Liverpool and Spurs) still to come to St Marys, wouldn't be bad place to be.
